Bianca” andreescu> spoke about how the environment in the WTA locker room between players is like. The Canadian player said: “We’re all friends in the locker room. We say hi, how are you, stuff like that. I mean, nothing too intense.

But, yeah, good vibes all around. For me? I don’t know. We’re all kind of in our own world, especially when the tournament starts.” “Being able to accomplish what I’ve accomplished and knowing that a lot of these young athletes are watching is something really special.

I try my best to show a good example because I know it has a lot of effect on them. I know it had a lot of effect on me watching all of these tennis players doing so well. So I’m just trying my best to be the best that I can.”

On her next opponent Sofia Kenin, Andreescu added: “It’s great to see the young generation doing well on the WTA tour. Yeah, I played her twice this year already, so I know what to expect from her. She is a fighter.

She gets to a lot of balls. So I’m going to go out there and just give my best performance. And I’m going to “Just Do It.” (Laughing.)” Andreescu added: “I know when I play younger players it’s never easier to play them, obviously.

But now that I’m making a name for myself, they’re starting to know how I play and all of that. But right now, I have nothing to lose, really. I just go out there and play my best tennis.”
